Why a good emergency action plan should include more than natural disasters

Compliance training has always had the mission of keeping people safe and part of that is helping your employees know what to do in an emergency situation. While it is never pleasant to think about worst-case scenarios, it is vastly important to have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) in place.

An EAP not only outlines responsibilities and what to do in a high-stress situation, but it also results in faster response times by employees and gives a level of security because they know what to do and how to respond.

Most employers have an EAP to cover fires, earthquakes, and tornados, but few employers consider what to do if there is a violent attacker in the office. Because employee safety is such a high priority, one must have a plan in place that explains what to do in this situation.

In this webinar you will learn:
1.Best Safety Practices for preparing and reacting to a violent attacker situation
2.The 3 Tiers of Response to a violent situation
3.Key elements of an Emergency Action Plan (EAP)
